RELIABLE BICYCLE TIRES FOR EVERYDAY USE
It is impossible to imagine everyday life without the bicycle as a means of transport! On the way to work, to the shops or to an event at the weekend. This makes it all the more important to be able to rely on your bicycle and tires at all times.
For almost all cyclists, "puncture protection" is by far the most important requirement for a bicycle tire. So it's good to know how you can best protect yourself from punctures.

HOW TO MAKE OUR TIRES SAFE?
Good puncture protection starts with the design of a tire and benefits from the materials used.
The type of puncture protection used depends on the respective area of use of the tire. There are rubber-based protective belts and special fabrics. Even our standard tires have an effective puncture protection belt made of natural rubber and reinforced with Kevlar® fibres. In addition, our top tires have particularly effective puncture protection systems that are specially adapted to the respective requirements, e.g. RaceGuard, V-Guard.
The SmartGuard and Smart DualGuard puncture protection inserts offer everyday cyclists the best possible puncture protection. They are approx. 5mm thick respectively and thus provide optimum protection against foreign objects such as tacks, glas shards or flints.
The requirements for a bicycle tire vary greatly from one area of use to another. A tire for everyday use, for example, differs considerably in terms of material and construction from a high-tech mountain bicycle tire. In our puncture protection guide, you can find out what the differences are quickly and easily:
HOW DO I PROTECT MYSELF FROM PUNCTURES?
The best protection against punctures is a high-quality bicycle tire with good puncture protection. But every cyclist can also do something to improve puncture protection on their own bicycle. Here are our tips for everyday life:
THE RIGHT TIRE PRESSURE
Most underestimated - but with an amazing effect. The air pressure should always be adjusted to the cyclist and checked regularly.
TIRE CHECK
A quick glance is usually enough to detect and remove foreign bodies that have become lodged
GOOD ACCESSORIES
It's also about inner safety. Did you know that puncture protection can also be optimized with high-quality tubes and rim tapes?

The aim is to incorporate the recovered material into the production of new goods and to further increase the proportion of recycled material. In this way, we want to take an important step towards a circular economy.
